[Geoserver-users] Exception: The typename element is mandatory if no FEATUREID is present

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hi,

I'm getting this exception when posting a WFS query from a MapBuilder
JavaScript. I checked the list's history and found out that I should
change the request's Content-Type to application/xml. I made the
change and I still get the exception. I'm trying with GeoServer 1.4
and 1.5 (1.3 doesn't go along with my postgis database).

I cannot provide the code of the request (I'm not familiar with
MapBuilder yet), but I'm sending  the request readers, post contents
(whose query is working fine when sent through the request demo
interface) and exception report.

Thanks and cheers,
Luiz Celso
